Answer:

The correct option is : c. Teres Major

Explanation:

Rotator cuff muscle is the group of muscles and their tendons present in the shoulder. The function of rotator cuff muscle is to stabilize the shoulder, by keeping the ball of the humerus bone in the socket of the shoulder.

The four rotator cuff muscles and their functions-

  1. Supraspinatus muscle: abduction of humerus
  2. Infraspinatus muscle: external rotation of humerus
  3. Teres minor muscle: external rotation of humerus
  4. Subscapularis muscle: internal rotation of humerus

Therefore, the rotator cuff muscle does not contain the teres major muscle.

The nurse suspects that an older adult client has a basal cell carcinoma. what finding did the nurse use to make this clinical d
777dan777 [17]

The nurse suspects that an older adult patient has features of basal cell carcinoma appearing in form of a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

What is Basal cell carcinoma?

The most prevalent type of skin cancer that is not melanoma is basal cell carcinoma (BCC).

  • It is a tumour that causes localized damage and has a variety of clinical and histological characteristics.
  • When viewed at low power magnification, a basaloid epithelial tumour emerging from the epidermis is the primary characteristic of basal cell carcinoma.
  • Normally, the palisade-like basaloid epithelium forms a fissure from the surrounding tumour stroma.

The nuclei grow congested in the centre, with scattered mitotic figures and visible necrotic bodies.

The presence of a mucinous stroma serves as a helpful distinguishing factor from other basaloid cutaneous tumours. Additionally, some tumours may exhibit foci of regression, which are regions of eosinophilic stroma devoid of basaloid nests.

Hence, the answer is a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

Smooth ER of a muscle cell:
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: B. Sarcoplasmic reticulum

Explanation: The sarcoplasmic reticulum is the name given to the organelle in the muscle cell, in charge of the storage and regulation of the intracellular calcium levels. It is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells, it means that it does not have ribosomes in its surface.

Option A. Incorrect. A SARCOMERE is the functional and anatomic unit of the striated muscle (skeletal muscle and heart muscle). This word comes from the greek: <em>sarkos (meat), meros (part). </em>That is reason you could find other structures of the muscle cell with this root (SARCO...).

Option C. Incorrect. "Arcolemma" this word does not exist. But if it refers to SARCOLEMMA, this word means: <em>sarko (meat), lema (cortex) </em>in greek<em>. </em>It is the plasma membrane of the muscle cells.

Option D. Incorrect. The SARCOPLASM, comes from the greek: <em>sarko (meat), plasm (matter). </em>This structure is the citoplasm of the muscle cells.

In conclusion, the word SARCOPLASMIC RETICULUM, refers to a <em>structure of the muscle cell, </em>that in this case, is the RETICULUM or the SMOOTH ER.
